KOGAONE

Matthieu Koga, aka Kogaone, is a French artist, based in Metz. Specialized in large walls, it has left its mark in Europe and even beyond in cities like Paris, Dublin, Eidhoven or Sarajevo… His works touch the viewer’s spirit with their dark irony, varied palettes and unusual or even disturbing combinations. He explores the alteration, the paradox, the embarrassment that arise when the familiar is deformed or fractured by external influences. He denatures a scene of life and portraits, moves or distorts fragments, or combines / opposes photorealism to a more free and expressionist painting. He plays with the notion of realism that he distends to abstraction. It is a way of discovering and accepting the singular beauty that is revealed in hesitation, unfinished and imperfect.

 

Kogaone 是一位來自法國梅斯的多媒體和多技術畫家。他的作品以其黑暗的諷刺、不同的調色板以及不同尋常甚至令人不安的組合來標記觀眾的精神。他的作品也受到大師作品的啟發,而不是受到銘刻在當時代碼中的人類的啟發。他仔細觀察他的同時代人,他們的本性往往是矛盾的,他探索了改變、悖論和尷尬,當熟悉的東西被外部影響扭曲或破裂時,它們就會突然出現。它扭曲了生活場景,置換或變形了片段,或者將照片寫實主義與更原始的表現主義繪畫相結合/對比。通過形狀、顏色或材料的對比,他延伸到抽象的現實主義概念。然後,這些對比鮮明的想法被凍結在畫筆下,形成一個明確的視覺統一體。這是一種發現和接受獨特美的方式,這種美在猶豫、未完成、不完美中展現出來。
